Parliamentary move to summon Al-Sudani and the Minister of Finance
Parliamentary move to summon Al-Sudani and the Minister of Finance
Member of Parliament, Mohammed al-Khafaji, revealed on Sunday a parliamentary move to summon Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani and Finance Minister Taif Sami to Parliament to discuss the current financial crisis.
Al-Khafaji told Al-Maalouma, “There is an urgent need to summon those concerned to understand the repercussions of the financial crisis the country is experiencing and to develop effective solutions.”
He added, "The summons also aims to discuss the constitutional violations committed by the Cabinet, represented by making strategic decisions and signing contracts that exceed the powers of a caretaker government."
He pointed out that "the Constitution defines the government's duties at this stage, and any action outside this framework is a legal violation that necessitates accountability and parliamentary oversight." link

A New Week… Same Global Tension
The call opened with a familiar feeling across the community:
“Good morning and welcome to a new week of possibilities.”
Yet the mood quickly turned realistic:
“The weekend was a nothing burger… so hoping the week is better.”
Despite the quiet surface, the underlying global financial pressure continues to intensify, and according to
MarkZ, what’s happening behind the scenes is anything but calm.Bond Market Update: Quiet… But Watching Closely
MarkZ confirmed that on the bond side:
Activity remains quiet, as expected for a Monday morning
No unexpected movement — yet
Any sudden changes will be shared immediately via Truth, X, or Telegram
Silence in the bond market doesn’t mean stability — it often means tension is being artificially managed.
Federal Reserve Injects $56 Billion: Why This Matters
One member highlighted a major development:
“The Federal Reserve is injecting $56 billion into the banking system over the next three weeks.”
MarkZ Response:
The measures being taken right now are extreme.
π―π΅ Japan is struggling to prevent bond collapse
πΊπΈ The U.S. is fighting to prevent bank implosions
Liquidity injections are damage control, not growth
π When central banks inject liquidity at this scale, it signals systemic stress, not strength.
China Dumps U.S. Treasuries — And No One Wants Them
Another major topic raised:
“China has announced they will be dumping $600 billion in U.S. Treasuries.”
MarkZ added a sobering observation:
“Nobody wants U.S. treasuries… even U.S. citizens don’t buy them much anymore.”
This points to:
Declining confidence in debt-based assets
A global shift away from paper promises
Growing interest in hard assets and alternative systems
Is the Yuan Gold-Backed? Clarifying the Narrative
When asked about China backing the yuan with gold:
MarkZ clarified:
China introduced a hybrid gold-backed yuan years ago
Used primarily for international oil trade
Not a full retail gold standard — but a strategic move
This reinforces a long-term trend: de-dollarization is real and accelerating.
Iraq Update: Political Gridlock and Digital Control
Parliament Dysfunction Continues
“Iraq Parliament held a session for minutes and adjourned until further notice.”
Sessions are being:
Opened briefly
Shut down quickly
Pushed back repeatedly
Political instability remains a major frustration.
ASYCUDA and Customs Reform: A Quiet Game Changer
Despite political chaos, MarkZ highlighted something critical:
“They are sticking to their guns on customs and imports.”
ASYCUDA (digital customs system):
Forces all imports to be tracked digitally
Eliminates bribery and corruption
Stops money leakage to political elites
Speculators and smugglers are actively pushing false narratives to stir unrest — a sign the system is working.
Comex, Silver, and a Broken Market
One of the most alarming discussions involved silver:
“Comex is in crisis: the Western silver racket implodes as China and India take control.”
MarkZ confirmed:
A recent bank failure was tied to silver exposure
Physical supply is extremely tight
Paper silver markets are structurally broken
Bill Holter echoed this concern:
“If you sell your silver, you probably won’t be able to replace it.”
ATM Shutdowns and Public Awareness
A member shared:
“My bank texted me that ATMs will be shut down on the 16th & 17th.”
While localized outages happen for many reasons, they add to a growing sense of unease.
As one member perfectly summarized:
“Mark, TNT, Frank, Bruce — every RV-related site will be shouting it from the treetops. You won’t miss it.”
Featured Snippet: Why Is the Federal Reserve Injecting Money Into Banks?
Answer:
The Federal Reserve is injecting liquidity to stabilize banks and prevent systemic failures amid extreme bond market stress in the U.S. and Japan. These measures signal financial strain rather than economic strength.
Featured Snippet: Is There a Global Silver Shortage?
Answer:
Yes. According to MarkZ and analysts like Bill Holter, physical silver supply is extremely tight, with paper markets failing to reflect real availability, making replacement difficult once sold.
Q&A: Community’s Biggest Questions
❓ Is the bond market collapsing?
Not openly — but massive intervention suggests serious stress.
❓ Are bank bailouts happening again?
Indirectly, yes — through liquidity injections instead of headlines.
❓ Is Iraq slowing down the RV?
Politically yes, structurally no. Digital reforms continue quietly.
❓ Should people be worried about ATM outages?
Localized outages aren’t uncommon, but they add to broader financial tension.
❓ How will we know when the RV happens?
You won’t miss it — every major platform will explode with confirmation.
Final Thoughts: Calm on the Surface, Chaos Underneath
Quiet bonds. Extreme interventions. Silver shortages. Digital controls. Political paralysis.
These are classic signs of a system under pressure — and historically, major financial resets don’t arrive with fireworks… they arrive after silence.

Member: The Federal Reserve is injecting $56 billion into the banking system over the next 3 weeks.
MZ: The efforts to keep the bonds from collapsing in Japan is extreme. To keep the Banks from imploding in the US is extreme right now. Just keep watching.

Member: Also China has announced they will be dumping $600 Billion in treasuries.
MZ: Nobody wants US treasuries…Even US citizens don’t buy treasuries much anymore.

Member: I saw an interesting article about Iraq talking about building up their smaller cities to offset crowding. But to do so will be extremely expensive.
MZ: “Iraq Parliament hold session for minutes and adjouns it until further notice” They tabled their session over the weekend…then came back on Monday which was shut down.
Member: Will Iraq will have their govt finalized by the next election? I thought the US elections were messed up ….but Iraq wins the award
MZ: “The state administrative coalition supported the ASYSCUDA decision. Blocking the path of “political investment through chaos” and prevented buying through bribery” They are sticking to their guns on customs and imports. By forcing everything to be digital…its easy to track. Stops the money going to corrupt people.
MZ: “Speculators and smugglers lead the agitation against the new tariffs and ASYCUDA” They have set up bots to whip people up with false claims.
Member: Iraq needs to step up or get out of the first rv basket !! Annoying they are !!
MZ: “Comex is in crisis: the Western silver racket implodes as China and India take control” When we saw the failed bak last week…it was because of their silver exposure. Underlying fundamentals are broken.

Member: I've wondered for a long time... who will know we need to be notified???
Member: Mark, TNT, Frank, Bruce and every other RV related site will be shouting it from the treetops…..you won’t miss it.
Member: Everyone have a great day.
Dollar volatility and cash shortages freeze Iraq’s housing and car markets
Shafaq News- Baghdad
Housing listings are piling up, and car markets are drawing crowds without buyers across Iraq, as fast-moving prices and delayed incomes make major purchases increasingly out of reach for households, according to interviews with residents, traders, and economists.
Fluctuations in the US dollar exchange rate, rising gold prices, and repeated delays in public-sector salary payments have combined to slow activity in two of the most sensitive sectors for Iraqi families: housing and automobiles. While prices have largely held steady, the number of completed transactions has dropped sharply.
In Baghdad, Abu Ahmed, 52, has been trying to sell his home for more than four months without success. Potential buyers, he said, lose interest once they hear the price or say they are waiting for the dollar to stabilize. Homes that once sold within weeks now sit on the market indefinitely, he added, describing conditions as “almost completely stalled.”

Economists say the slowdown reflects growing uncertainty rather than a collapse in asset values. Mustafa Faraj, an economic analyst, explained that Iraq’s heavy dependence on imports makes domestic markets highly sensitive to currency movements, particularly in the car sector, where vehicles are priced in foreign currency. Housing prices, he noted, are also indirectly affected through oil revenues and dollar-based state spending.
Faraj said the current stagnation is being driven primarily by liquidity shortages and delayed salaries, which have “weakened purchasing power and pushed households to postpone large financial commitments.” At the same time, rising gold prices and regional geopolitical tensions have encouraged wealthier Iraqis to shift savings toward gold, reducing cash circulation in the broader economy.
Concerns about keeping savings in state-owned banks and recent restrictions on transferring funds abroad have reinforced this trend, further tightening liquidity in consumer markets.
Local authorities have acknowledged the slowdown. In December 2025, the Baghdad Provincial Council linked declining real estate activity to high fines and taxes on subdivided housing units. The council said it was preparing recommendations to reduce subdivision penalties and limit taxation to sold portions of land, to ease pressure on the market.

Safwan Qusay, an economic expert, did not place responsibility on monetary policy, pointing out that the Central Bank of Iraq and commercial banks continue to offer financing programs aimed at supporting homebuyers and, in some cases, vehicle purchases. He argued that gold price fluctuations are driven by global markets rather than domestic monetary decisions, and that housing demand could recover independently of turbulence in currency or commodity prices.
On the ground, however, business owners report little sign of recovery. Radwan Al-Yasiri, who runs a car showroom in Baghdad’s Al-Bayaa district, said sales have nearly stopped. Markets that were once crowded on weekends now see only sporadic transactions. He attributed the decline to weak purchasing power, inflation, higher customs fees, and tighter regulations on imported vehicles, “all of which have pushed prices higher and discouraged buyers.”
Real estate broker Abdul Hassan Kazem, who operates a property office in Baghdad’s Al-Jihad neighborhood, said his last home sale was more than two months ago. Current activity, he noted, is largely limited to rentals, as buyers struggle to match prices with their incomes.
Economic observers warn that the stagnation may reflect a deeper contraction in domestic demand rather than a temporary pause. Khaled Al-Jaberi, head of the Ousoul Foundation for Economic and Sustainable Development, said eroding purchasing power and tightening liquidity have forced households into cautious spending patterns, affecting multiple sectors beyond housing and cars.
According to Al-Jaberi, vehicles were hit first because they represent postponable spending during income shocks. Real estate, while retaining nominal value, has entered a phase of what he described as “transactional paralysis,” marked by rigid prices and a lack of buyers able to complete deals.
He added that newly married couples, traditionally a key driver of demand for housing, gold, furniture, and construction materials, are increasingly delaying marriages or scaling back wedding plans due to prices that no longer align with incomes. This, he said, has triggered a slowdown across interconnected markets.
While gold has become a refuge for some households, Al-Jaberi warned that the trend benefits only higher-income groups with existing assets, leaving most families outside effective saving and consumption cycles. The core problem, he argued, is not a shortage of money in the system, but blocked channels preventing liquidity from reaching real demand.
“Without targeted financial tools to break the current freeze without fueling inflation, the slowdown risks hardening into a prolonged economic contraction,” he concluded.
